Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for February 12, 2015

I think you tortured him into that one, Cathy. We’re sending you to Iraq next. I can just hear ISIS now… “Nooooo! We give up!”

Hello Cathy clan! Glad you got back from your trip okay, hendelca! Keep warm, friends!

Oh Cathy, what are we going to do with you?

Good morning Cathy friends!

Wow, can we make life any more complicated?

I don’t let ANYBODY yell at me like that!

Irving’s no prize — especially with that huge ego of his — but I’ve never been able to comprehend his interest in Cathy when she forces him to endure conversations like this against his will!!! I completely understand why their dinner (on January 30th) was the last straw for him, leading to their most recent break-up. Only Cathy could take a sweet, simple compliment like “I’m crazy about you!” and psychoanalyze to death it’s true “meaning” until the poor guy finally says out of frustration “I’m crazy BECAUSE of you!!” If Irving had any sense, he’d just pick up the gym bag, call it quits for good and then either try to take the ring back where he bought it or sell it to someone else and forget this whole rela-tionship ever happened to begin with. But since neither one of these two people have a lick of sense between them, I’d say they’re pretty deserving of each other, that’s for sure!!!!!

Hi, rgcviper!

hendelca: Glad you made it home okay!

Hello and Happy Thursday, fellow Cathy fans. Hope everyone’s keeping as warm as possible today!

What if he was just keeping the ring for a buddy so his GF wouldn’t find it?

Are we, and Cathy of course, so sure there is a ring in that box?

Somebody else planted the ring in Irving’s bag…..

[Sigh …]

Irving: You sure you know what you’re getting yourself into here?

HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.
